The Early Years Chapter SIX
Meredith stood at her locker that morning, four friends surrounding her. "Ok Mer, how do you want to do this?" Christina asked.
"I have to do this by myself, just make sure you can see me." She said. Izzie put her arms around Meredith’s shoulders.
"Here he comes," Alex observed.
Finn walked down the hall and towards Meredith "hey babe." He said, giving her a kiss on the cheek.
"Hey. Can I talk to you for a minute?" She asked, grabbing his arm and walking with him down the hall.
"What’s up?"
Meredith took a deep breath, ‘just rip off the band aid’ she told herself. "I don’t think that we should see each other anymore."
Finn grabbed her wrist, hard. "Excuse me?"
Meredith didn’t know where it came from, but she suddenly found her strength. She managed to pull her wrist from Finn’s grasp. "You heard what I said Finn! I’m breaking up with you. No one should be in a relationship like ours. You had no right to treat me the way you did! You had no right to hit me!"
Finn tried to calm himself down before speaking, "Meredith, you do realize that you are making a huge mistake. No one is going to love someone as ugly as you."
Tears threatened to fall from Meredith’s eyes, but she blinked them away, there was no way that Finn was going to make her cry ever again. "You’re wrong! I am not ugly. Your mind games aren’t going to work on me anymore!"
This time, Finn’s hands grabbed both her wrists, "Mer, stop talking nonsense."
"I suggest you let Meredith go Finn." Alex said from behind him. Alex and Finn had been friends for as long as Alex could remember, he had introduced Finn to Meredith. He felt so guilty at that moment.
Finn turned, facing four very intimidating faces.
"Don’t even think about hurting Meredith again!" Christina spoke, taking hold of Meredith’s hand, and pulling her over to the safest place she had ever felt.
As Izzie, Christina, and George ushered Meredith away, Alex spoke to Finn, "if you ever come near her again, I’ll kill you." He said, walking away.
"Geez, Alex is pretty intense Iz." Meredith said, laughing.
"You have no idea," Izzie sighed, causing everyone to laugh.
Later that day, in any class Finn had with Meredith, he had asked the teacher if he could sit at the back of the class.

Derek had been thinking about Meredith all day. She was going to break up with Finn. He wondered if she was ok.
As he walked out of the hospital, there she was, sitting on the bike racks outside. She looked good in her tight jeans, tight sweater and pink converse.
"Hey, waiting for your mom?" He asked, trying to act casual.
"No; you actually." She said, "I broke up with Finn today."
"He didn’t-"
"No, my friend were there actually."
"I’m so proud of you."
Meredith blushed, "thanks. Actually, I came here to thank you."
"Thank me?"
"Yeah, you gave me the courage to do what I did."
"I think you did that all on your own."
Meredith smiled, "I want to thank you though. I’m meeting Alex, Izzie, George and Christina and Alex’s house to celebrate my singledom and I was wondering if you wanted to come."
"I’d love to Mer, but I told my friend Preston I’d have drinks with him after his shift. He gets off in about an hour."
"Oh, well, bring him too! Please Derek. Alex has plenty of drinks."
"None of you are old enough to be drinking." Derek smirked.
Meredith looked at him with sultry eyes, "well, maybe if we had adult supervision it would be ok?" She bit her lip.
"Ok, ok, just let me call Burke. I’ll leave him a message with the address.
They both smiled at each other, and Derek and Meredith walked to his car.
